BBC is reporting that Birmingham Airport has ruled out renaming it after OZZY OSBOURNE. Airport CEO Nick Barton said keeping the current name was "incredibly valuable for development". A petition calling on the airport to change its name has attracted almost 77,000 signatures and the man who started it, Dan Hudson, said: "It continues to go from strength to strength." Mr. Barton said, while he recognized the legend that Ozzy was, it was important the airport grew its network through its current name. "Birmingham, amazingly, has an extraordinary list of fantastically influential people, going from historic people like Charles Darwin, as well as Robert Plant and Sir Lenny Henry but the answer is no," he told BBC Radio WM. "The airport name is so important for our future development of what we've got, which is a fantastic airport, but yet to grow significantly, which we will do on the back of its name."
